1. Krav Maga
The Israeli fighting techniques piqued my interest after reading the Kristen Conner mysteries. (Somewhat unrelated, but how did I miss that there is a third one?!) I think it would be an awesome self defense style to learn with my daughter when she is older.
2. Turkish Delight
I've tried it a few times, since if Edmund was crazy about it, then it must be amazing. I'm thinking Edmund was crazy. lol. I've had some that it pretty good, but I wouldn't sell out anyone over it.;)
3. Archery
Robin Hood and, in recent years, Merida and Katniss, have given me a love for archery. I spent hours shooting hay bales with my garage sale long bow as a kid.;) Now, as an adult, I've toyed with the idea of asking my husband for a bow for Christmas, since he enjoys archery and it would be a fun hobby to do together.
4. Homesteading
I blame this one on the Little House books, which was the first series I finished as a kid. I can't say I am a true homesteader, but I have the heart for it, which is good since my husband turned most of the lot our home sits on into a garden/orchard.;) There is something quite satisfying about canning!
The peaches, from our own trees, that I recently canned. I sure hope they turned out, since peaches are a bit more work than some of the other things I have canned!
5. Wardrobes
Is it lame that I actually have one? lol. It is not near this neat, but I thought I needed it when I came across one for a good deal at an estate sale. It is handy to have to store all my games, scrapbooking items, and paper projects.
6. England
My aunt is worried that when I finally make it there, that I will be disappointed that it is not like the classics portray it.;)
7. Skye
It sounds like an interesting place, which I was introduced to in Five Days in Skye
8. Prince Edward Island
One guess on why this is on my list.;)
9. French baking
I wish I could truly master it... I think I lack the patience though.
10. Lamp posts
Another Narnia induced fetish. They are just fun anyway.
Archery made my list too! I also want to try Turkish Delight. :)
ReplyDeleteCheck out my TTT.
I recommend trying Turkish Delight fresh, if you can, since that was (by far!) the best I have had.
DeleteHurray for archery!
Archery! Yes!
ReplyDeleteI've tried Turkish Delight a few different times but never understood why Edmund would sell out his family for it... :P
Oh.. and I had the biggest crush on Gilbert from Anne of Green Gables when I was younger. I wanted to go to PEI like mad after reading that series.
I know, right? Chocolate or ice cream, maybe, but not Turkish Delight.;)
DeleteI can see why you had a crush on Gilbert!
I can't believe how popular archery is this week! It's on my list too. :-)
ReplyDeleteIt is funny how popular it is! Here I thought I was original.;)
DeleteEngland is pretty cool (though I'm English so I have to say that)!

I think I will enjoy it, when I finally make it there.;) I realize that you all no longer wear 1800's clothes and not everyone lives in nifty old houses that are older than my country.;)
DeleteGreat list, Amanda. Yay for the Narnia references (love those stories!) and of course, England. #AllThingsBritish for the win. :) Prince Edward Island would be a dream trip indeed. For obvious reasons. ;)
